Nice. Love the inscription! I'd supply a translation but that looks to have already been done. Out of curiousity, how much leather did it take? I'm considering a similar project in the near future, see...

Interesting... cause I reckon I'm going to have eight or nine just lying around after my current project is completed... *Ponders* Don't suppose there's any chance of pics of the back? I'm curious as to how such a thing would be done...

Wow, very nice. I especially like the norse scripture you put in. Although, I didn't know that it was still called a cuirass when made out of leather.

How does anyone get that good at anything? This is amazing! I wish I could work with leather, but alas, it is hard to sew, even with the special needle. I'm really not good at any big sewing projects. I'm more of a 'I make little art dolls but not very detailed' kind of person.
Nice work! Keep it up!
(By the way, you must have some great abs. Just sayin'. )

Maybe I will; tooling leather does sound interesting.
I thought so.

This is beautiful. Did you use vegetable dyes in the breastplate? I love the detail work and the celtic knot work. Lovely job!
